The Vampire Diary

For a young actor in 2010, there’s no better place to be than smack in the middle of the vampire craze. Though they don’t play vamps on“The Vampire Diaries,” Steven R. McQueen and Michael Trevino have certainly caught their share of vampire fever. On a break from shooting the show in Atlanta, Trevino and McQueen flew to Chicago to meet their legions of Chi-town fans at the Hot Topic Tour.
